There were just over 58,000 produced or 1% out of the total Mini production of 5.5 million. The pickup was a favorite of farmers, and just like in the USA, many were left to rust in the field when their normal life was over. The British Motor Corporation came into existence in 1952 by the merging of two manufacturers, Nuffield Motors and Austin. Nuffield was known for its Morris line of vehicles, while Austin had its ‘Seven’ model line. The transition for the two manufacturers was difficult and had been forced out of necessity. After World War II, many vehicle manufacturers could not stay in business due to destroyed factories, recovering economies, strained resources, and lack of funds. Combining the two companies was a means to stay in business. A fuel shortage was occurring. German engineers quickly adapted and began producing fuel-efficient vehicles. Examples
